Data linked to your use of our website and navigation of the online newsletter (see ‘Cookies and web beacons’).

You are not obliged to provide personal data but you will understand that it is impossible for us to provide some of our services if you do not consent to the processing of your personal data. When you fill in a form online, the boxes marked with a star are compulsory data that you have to provide in order to fulfil an agreement (to supply tickets, send the newsletter (e-zine) etc.).

What do we use the data collected for, how do we use it and for how long?

The data we collect is used for:

settling payments and delivering tickets (in fulfilment of an agreement);

direct marketing in the form of electronic newsletters (as a legitimate interest, specifically the aim to ensure the continuity of our activities and maintain a relationship with our visitors);

to inform you about our services and products and any changes to them (as a legitimate interest, specifically the aim to ensure the continuity of our activities and maintain a relationship with our visitors / fulfil agreements).

Our database of information is regularly tidied up. Data belonging to customers who have not bought any tickets for more than four years since their last purchase are removed from the database unless these persons have actively registered for the newsletter or brochure. Subject to the above, your personal data is stored in accordance with the specific legislation and expiry dates that oblige us to keep your personal data for longer.

Personal data of persons under the age of 16

Providing your date of birth is optional when buying tickets or participating in activities. This means that we cannot actively check whether tickets are sold to persons under the age of 16 and whether their personal data is collected. If you are convinced that we have collected personal data from a person under the age of 16 without the required permission, contact us at info@nona.be or by telephone on 015 20 37 80 and we will remove this information.

For example, we use a third party to:

provide our internet environment (web hosting);

provide our IT infrastructure (including the IT network etc.);

provide the ticketing service;

provide (and distribute) newsletters and invitations.

These parties (processors) process your data on our behalf. It goes without saying that the necessary arrangements are made and set down in a processing contract, in order to guarantee the security of your personal data. Your data is never shared with third parties other than the aforesaid processors and any co-producers of the activity in question.
